Federal immigration officers in the Chicago area will be required to wear body cameras, a judge said Thursday after seeing tear gas and other aggressive steps used against protesters.

U.S. District Judge Sara Ellis said she was a “little startled” after seeing TV images of clashes between agents and the public during President Donald Trump’s administration’s immigration crackdown.

“I live in Chicago if folks haven’t noticed,” she said. “And I’m not blind, right?”


quote:

Ellis last week said agents in the area must wear badges, and she banned them from using certain riot control techniques against peaceful protesters and journalists.

“I’m having concerns about my order being followed,” the judge said.


quote:

U.S. Justice Department attorney Sean Skedzielewski laid blame with “one-sided and selectively edited media reports.” He also said it wouldn’t be possible to immediately distribute cameras.


“I understand that. I would not be expecting agents to wear body-worn cameras they do not have,” Ellis said, adding that the details could be worked out later.

Body cams actually wound up seriously supporting the fact Police deal with a lot of egregious shite and backfired on the dem narratives at the time. It will be the same here.

Yep. My thought as well. ESP with Pritzker looking to charge them with crimes later.

He probably hates hearing this.

We will get some hilarious YouTube videos once the vids are released.

This is great.

But under what authority does a judge have to create policy for federal agents?

Is it illegal to not wear BWCs?

ETA: sorry for the industry acronym. Just in case

Body Worn Camera = BWC

Matt Walsh loves talking about how BLM pushing hard for bodycams is one of the greatest self owns of all time.

ICE has to be a bit like Br'er Rabbit begging to not be thrown into the briar patch.

Good this will compile a crap ton of evidence that ICE is being way more restrained then a is even required of a regular citizen.

Another good investment would be big arse metal guards on the front and maybe even the back. This way when people block them in with their cars ICE could simply drive away while destroying the idiots car in the process.

If you think this is excessive you must not realize how boxing in LEO puts them at great risk. Holds them in a spot where freaks surround them and out number them.

I hope this is addressed before one of them gets murdered instead of after.

Who are these US District judges who think they can just make up the rules as they go?

A federal judge doesn't have the authority to do this, but I can't wait until this completely backfires in her face.

Hard to imagine they have that authority.

Wouldn't there need to be a case the judge is presiding over for her to make any ruling?

If Chicago and LA love their immigrants so much just pull all federal stuff out including financing.

Let them fester in their pile of shite

This seems like a no brainer for all involved. Many people have been exonerated because of dash cams. Many police have been vindicated because of body cams.

So this should not be controversial at all.

I support body cameras, it usually works in the officers favor. Not to mention will provide lots of videos for DHS to post on social media of the crazies of the left.

What authority does this liberal wacko judge have to decide federal law enforcement policy.

Is there a law requiring BWCs?

You fruits are hilarious.

I am about there.

Pull everything out including $$$ and let them fend for themselves as it quickly descends into a hellscape. And I would tell any federal judge to frick off and when they're being dragged out of their burning courthouses to remember they created this situation.
